Volume 1 The Fuse Chapter 45 Challenge
Back to the barracks in the evening, pacing back and forth in the tent alone.
Psychic was right, how to force the leaders of the two clans to communicate was a problem.
I was going to ask Leah to call Nilou over. The appearance of the dragon should have a very big deterrent effect.
But I've already told Mr. Niu that I've killed the dragon, and if the news of the dragon's reappearance reaches their ears, will it weaken the trust between the team?
Is there any other way?
If the pig-people are indeed as strong and aggressive as the spirit says. So if I defeat their strongest warrior as a challenger, will I be able to gain their respect?
"Master."
The curtain was lifted, and Ria entered.
"Liya, you're here just in time, I want you to help with something."
Approaching, Liya looked up and looked at me with big eyes without blinking.
"What does the master need for Liya?"
"Could you please ask Nilou to come around for a moment? Marina City might need her help. ”
"Hmm."
"By the way, this piece of reverse scale will be returned to you."
I took off the pendant from my neck, handed it to Leah, and continued:
"Let her find a hidden place to stay when she gets here, so that no one will find out."
She took the pendant and put it around her neck.
After a moment, she said:
"Master, Sister Nilou agreed."
"So fast? Have you already told her? Why didn't I hear you guys? ”
"We connect with our hearts, we don't have to talk."
I'm going, is it so awesome.
"By the way, I have a question I've been asking you. Did Nilou teach you combat techniques? ”
"No," Liya looked puzzled in her eyes.
"Why does the master ask that?"
"I just don't understand why you suddenly became so powerful when you died in the Gobi, and I thought Nilou taught you something."
Liya lowered her head and said:
"Because Liya has been by her master's side, she has memorized how her master fights with other heroes, and she has slowly learned a little ...... Far from the host. ”
I see!
However, just watching us fight, did it become so powerful after watching it a few times?
Doesn't that mean that she has a lot of fighting talent and a strong ability to learn?
I touched Lia's head.
"It's just that as a hero, my base strength is stronger, and I also have skill bonuses. In terms of combat skills alone, I'm not necessarily better than Liya. ”
"Really?" She looked up at me.
"Really."
"However, your archery skills still need to be improved, tomorrow I will ask Linghua, who in the military camp is more powerful in archery, how about finding someone to teach you?"
"Master, just now Sister Lingphanta said that she will teach me archery tomorrow."
"Oh? She teaches you? Is she good at archery? ”
I don't seem to have seen a magic bow and arrow, so can she do it?
Liya tilted her head and said with some uncertainty:
"Sister Phantom said that her arrows shot accurately, it should be very powerful, right?!"
"Well, I'll check it out tomorrow too."
Look at how good the psychic archery is, and by the way, look at Liya's learning ability, if she learns well, maybe it won't take long to greatly improve the hit rate.
Early the next morning, I took Liya to the training ground to look for the spirit.
She is supervising the training of soldiers.
"Phantom Lady."
She turned to look at her, her eyes lit up.
"Chen Yingying, have you thought of a way?"
"Oh, still thinking about it."
For a moment, her eyes dimmed a little.
"Chen Yingying, I'll tell you the truth, as soon as I returned to the camp yesterday, several captains came to ask me, saying if you were afraid of fighting, so you let the team retreat."
"What do you say?"
Lingphantom sighed and said helplessly:
"I explained it for you, but judging by the looks of several captains, it is obvious that you still think that you are in vain."
"If I hadn't seen you fight, and I was there when my father made that decision, I'd have thought you were scared."
Hearing her words, I looked at the soldiers not far away. They continued to practice and did not stop.
However, several captains were looking at me with a slight disdain in their expressions. If it weren't for the fact that my status is so much higher than theirs, I'm afraid they would have shown their disdain even more obviously.
Shaking my head, I was helpless.
Forget it, whatever you want to do with them, I just need to complete the task.
Looking back at the psyche, I said:
"I heard Liya say last night that you promised to teach him archery today, so I brought her over to you, are you free now?"
"Yes, come with me."
After speaking, the spirit phantom waved his hand in the direction of the soldier, and the flag in the hand of one of the soldier captains waved, and the drill ended.
He followed the spirit in the direction of the shooting range, and before he could go far, a group of soldiers caught up.
"Hero-sama!"
A tall and burly man called out to me, first clasped his fists and saluted, and then said in a loud voice:
"I have admired the prestige of the hero for a long time, but unfortunately the lord is far away in the royal capital. Now that the adults are coming to Marina City, I want to take this opportunity to see the power of the heroes, increase my knowledge, and hope that the adults will teach me. ”
I looked at the psyche.
She stood expressionless and silent.
There were more and more soldiers around, and several soldier captains also came over.
"Okay." I agreed.
The man clenched his fists again, then made a gesture of please.
"Please move on."
"Don't bother, just leave it here, let's just spread out a little."
Everyone scattered in all directions, and the big man also took more than a dozen steps back, distancing himself from me.
He gripped the hilt of the broadsword in his right hand, the blade diagonally downward, the tip of the knife barely touching the ground by a centimeter.
"Please draw your sword."
"I don't have a sword, you can use it."
As soon as the words fell, there was a whisper of discussion from the surrounding soldiers.
"If you don't have a sword, that's not fair to you."
"It's okay, although that guy is usually a little reckless, he will also pay attention to proportions in the face of adults, and he shouldn't be ruthless."
"That guy Rook is the number one warrior in our Marina City, even if the hero is stronger than us, it is impossible to fight against Rook unarmed, right?"
"That's right, the sword has no eyes, if you accidentally hurt the adult, but something big will happen."
The big man named Rook probably heard the discussion around him and didn't move.
"Your Excellency!" Angus walked over and handed out the saber at his waist.
I glanced at him and pushed the knife back.
"Still don't use it, I'm not used to it."
In fact, it's not that I'm not used to it, but I'm mainly afraid of using a knife, what if I accidentally cut Luke?
I remember when I first came to this world, I was attacked by an ordinary human, and I accidentally killed him at that time, so I didn't receive the servant at that time. And at that time, it was just a subconscious punch.
If you accidentally beat Luke to death, even if everyone doesn't dare to do anything because of my identity, it will be very difficult to explain in front of the spirit. And my conscience will not pass.
"This warrior, please take action." I urged.
"Be careful, sir!"
With that, he tightened the handle of his knife with his right hand and rushed towards me with a large knife.
The tip of the knife touches the ground, and some sparks are generated in the violent friction.
I stood there and looked at him.
With five steps to go, he raised his right hand and raised his broadsword high, while his body was a little closer to me.
He shouted angrily, and the big knife slashed at the top of my head, without any moves, straight down.
There was an exclamation all around.
He has a lot of momentum and strength, but that's just for ordinary people.
"Be careful, sir!" Angus's voice came from behind him.
When the big knife hit, I turned to the side slightly, pushed forward with my right palm, and slapped it to the side of the blade.
Buzz –
The blade shuddered, and he turned backwards with his forward-rushing body.
"Wow-"
There was a commotion all around.
"It's amazing that an adult can repel a knife from Rook with his bare hands."
"Is this the power of heroes, it's really powerful!"
"Hmph, Rook's strength is more than that, I guess I didn't do my best just now because I was afraid of hurting adults."
Rook spun around with the broadsword, but he then pressed down hard, and the tip of the knife touched the ground again. While bursting out of countless sparks, the friction with the ground also made his figure slowly stabilize.
Once he stabilized himself, he took a few steps back and regained his distance.
"My lord is really powerful, so I can only do my best."
With a broadsword in his right hand, Rook rushed again.
"Look at the knife!"
He still raised his knife to slash, but this time he held the hilt with both hands, and he thought that the strength should be doubled.
"Look, Rook has a knife in both hands, and this power can split rocks."
I still turned to the side as I had done before, and slapped it with one palm.
Rook was spun again with the broadsword, but this time he didn't press down to stabilize his body, but used the force, alternating his feet in the center to increase the speed of the rotation, and the blade quickly approached me.
The broadsword flashed white, spun sharply around him, phantoms overlapping, and sliced sideways at me like the electric gears of a sawmill.
If I get cut, I'll get hurt even as a hero.
Of course, if you switch to the "game developer" state, you can easily deal with it, but it is not necessary at all.
I took a few steps back, waited for him to spin a little slower, and then kicked the ground and rushed up.
The right hand plunged into the knife light in one fell swoop.
"Be careful......
An exclamation sounded, and listening to the sound, it was a psyche.
She's also afraid that I'll be hurt here, so it's hard to explain it to Your Majesty, right?
But the scream stopped abruptly as I put my fingers together and caught the tip of the knife, causing Rook's form to stop instantly.
Luke gasped and saluted with his fists:
"Big, big adults are powerful, and I've been taught!"
His voice trembled slightly, along with his hands.
I must have been spinning too fast just now, but I stopped instantly, causing both arms to be injured.
There was a lot of whispering, but I didn't listen to what they were talking about.
I looked at Rook and asked:
"Are you alright?"
"Thank you for your mercy, it's okay to be here."
"That's good, but just in case, let's go and have a look at the military doctor."
"Yes!"
The soldiers whispered something as they dispersed.
"Are you alright?" The Phantom walked over, a visibly worried tone in his tone.
"It's fine."
"You were too risky just now, in case you were cut by a blade ......"
"Rest assured, there won't be a case."
"Whatever!" She was beautiful and slightly wrinkled, and her beautiful eyes glared at me.
She's angry?
"Don't worry, even if I am injured and it reaches His Majesty's ears, I will explain it myself......"
She stomped on the ground with her right foot and said angrily:
"I'm not worried about this ......"
So what are you worried about?
I just thought about it and didn't ask.
Seeing that her reaction is so big, obviously angry, it's better not to talk too much. Last time, I was slapped in the face for nothing, and I've learned my lesson.
After waiting for a moment to see that she didn't seem so angry, I scratched my head and asked:
"That, I'm going to trouble you about teaching Liya archery."
He didn't answer immediately, but he slowly exhaled a breath, as if calming his emotions.
After a moment, she glanced at Liya and said:
"Follow me."
